Oh my goodness - this is so backward. Didn't they ever hear of microfibers, that absorb even more moisture than cotton? Modern synthetics are really not comparable to what we had say twenty years ago - I was really surprised how comfortable , soft and fast drying high quality sportswear can be after buying a polo shirt and some clothes for the gym, being a die hard 100% cotton wearer up to then.
Though the "safety" reason is probably just an excuse, I guess the cotton industry there is going down and they just have no clue what to do against that. Maybe they should make good threads for lace making with their cotton, there's certainly a market for that ;-) Achim. > Russia bans synthetic lace next to the skin - I kid you not.
